Who got what?

[Stuart]

Tis the season for great and crap pressies.


So what was your best present and worst present?

Best was this http://mindstorms.lego.com/Products/Default.aspx from the bird
Ive built the scorpion and then modified the design to make it faster and then programmed it to hunt :D

Worst would be the chocoloate fountain from me dad....

[Alex.]

I didn't get that many AMAZING presents.
I got an eeyore hot water bottle cover thing, a ring, necklace, glow in the dark stars for my ceiling and a shiney VW keyring from Jack. Although I've lost my keys...lol...so not a good start!

Worst presents had to be from the grandparents! They bought me clothes...which is NEVER a good move unless I pick them out. A suade & fur waistcoat :tard:, a dress that would have been fashionable around the 80's/90's, a strange cheap car toy model thing. Not even of a certain type of car! Just a car!!

*SIGH*

Still doesn't feel like christmas though :(

P.S. Stuart if you fancy getting rid of the chocolate fountain....;)

[Dan]

i got lots of food, 180 notes, survival kit :tard: ,traditional smellies/socks etc. ermm a watch, keyring clock thing and some decent headphones. A cartoon nova clay model like my avatar, just needs painting grey, and again the traditional car cleaning supplies :D

Funniest part of xmas day was baby bro and his wife handing my father his gifts, which contained some chocolate covered giant ants (yes real ones :wtf: ) needless to say after he had demolished a few and handed them out to my grandparents the whole family was in stitches and couldnt bare telling them what they were.

[Jack]

Some good tools, shoes from my sister, Alien DVD box set which I've wanted for ages :D

Crappest present was probably the random jumper from my uncle... hmmm!

[dannyb]

The thing Im most looking forwrad to playing with is my ant farm:

http://www.fatbraintoys.com/toy_companies/fascinations/antworks.cfm?source=google&kwid=antworks&gclid=CKLr1oKNsIkCFTcrFQodTXVQUQ

I need to find some ants now, or pay ?5.75 for some to arrive through the mail....

Although its a birthday present from a few days ago, the most disappointing present has been the Creative Zen Nano

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-Zen-Nano-Plus-1GB/dp/B000A3P3WM/sr=8-1/qid=1167135214/ref=pd_ka_1/202-9894635-5432608?ie=UTF8&s=electronics

Its exactly what I wanted, a cheap MP3 player to have while bashing about on my bike. Execpt it doesnt go because I tried to plug and play it before I installed the drivers, now all my computer tells me is that the device is malfunctioning and is not recognised :( :( :(

[L14MNP]

I got some Snap-on tools, an ali jack http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0703/Renton/ebay/IMG_8576.jpg :) erm smellies/tshirts etc

Worst pres has gotta be a crazy survival kit thing - like above - with thermal blanket, flares etc lol

[lee coley]

I got a carpet for my house,well its been paid for,when im ready for moving in!!

[novalovingned]

the crapiest presant this year was a pair of boots that i could only probably hike in:) bless my mum, and best was probably a couple of things for the flat like the alloy wheel clock and a personalised afc clock

[BigStan]

Main things were the Rocky boxset, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !
And a digital camera to capture all those special moments and 2 tickets to PVS !

[novaco]

[Lee]

I got enough chocolate to sink an Aircraft Carrier, a mini pool table which gives you arthritis trying to play it, Moyles' and Clarksons new books, 60 quids worth of HMV vouchers (which I spent today), NFS Carbon, the obligatory socks and pants, baloon powered drag cars (uber cool), a book that allows you to insult people in 5 different languages, and some LED's that you stick behind your ears that turns them into indicators lol

[Stuart]

[bola]

Best one that i got was a nova :D cant wait to get started on it!

[Dave.]

best i got was either portable dvd player, ?50 or the remote control only fools and horses van :D

worst was my ?10 next voucher lol

[kronk10]

My presents were lame but only for two days???? I have a free xbox 360 coming tommorow so i thought i might just ask for games and stuff for it. So got about 200 quids worth of xbox goodies and nothing to play it on. Oh but the best present is the PLANET EARTH complete box set that is amazing the best bit of nature documentary EVER MADE:thumb:

[wisewood]

Easily the most fun present i got was this [image below - tv not invluded]. Didnt have much time on xmas day, but boxing day saw many hours wasted playing on sensible soccer, and the also included cannon fodder. The wife has some covert video of me on her phone, sat on the sofa in a dressing gown bouncing around in excitement at the music to cannon fodder as the mission loads lol

I've not really had anything that i don't like this year, I didn't know what i wanted, so didn't expect anything in particular. I did get the usual assortment of fragrances & chocolates which is a bit naff, but chocolate is always good, and i'd have needed to get some more smellies at some point anyway.

I SUPPOSE, the most crap present was the one i got from my auntie & uncle, but thats only because i'd already received the same thing from my in-laws 8 hours previously. Having said that - we do have a tradition of a sort of secret santa type thing in my family, and my secret santa got me one of those things you use on windows to get all the water off it lol but that gift is always crap, part of the reason we do it is to see how naff we can make it.

All-in-all a really successfull day of receiving gifts... loads of stuff i wanted without realising it, and nothing that i thought "i'm taking that back and swapping it"...

Oh yeah, and i got a little battery powered punch-bag to stick onto my desk at work, when you flick it it swears. Quite entertaining.




Main things were the Rocky boxset, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !

In summer 2007 when the next rocky movie comes out you box-set will suddenly be incomplete. Bummer lol

[Matt2107]

I was totally and utterly spoilt.

My gf bought me a 360, aftershave, project gotham racing 3, dvd's. My mom gave me ?100 towards my web page design course and loads of other little presents.

From various other people I got Need for Speed Carbon, Rainbow Six - Las Vegas, some really smart Timberland low level boots, set of spanners, set of deep sockets, Jamaroqui (sp) greatest hits album, more dvds and probably loads of other cool stuff that I can't remember.

Already spent quite a few hours on the 360....

Is it possible to wear your fingers down completely?

****test present I got was.... my secret santa at work.

Some knobber got me a secret detective science kit.

[wisewood]

An old member of the site, no longer around much, got a vibrating c0ck ring as his secret santa gift lol classy.

lol nice... I had the deputy MD who is shagging the Marketing Manager while still going home to his wife every night.

I got him a posing pouch with g string back that had a pair of lips that said kiss here.... he was mega embarrased but managed to save the situation quite well (hats off to him) by wearing them over his jeans and parading around.

Although he failed to even half fill the pouch even with his trousers on.
